The premise is incredible and it's very Capcom to gently caress it up.

i got a few games in steam sale.

pan-pan: looked like monument valley i love that arty puzzle poo poo
kingsway: roguelike RPG by way of Windows 3.1 interface
way of the samurai 3: from what i understand this is the only good WOTS on steam
painscreek killings: I love walking simulators and also detective games
republique: was always interested in this style of game
aliens vs predator: slowly collecting all the rebellion shootys
soma spirits: cute looking indie rpg
SIN Episodes: it was the first time on sale in forever and i needed to own a piece of gaming history. also it came with the original sin game?? that wasn't advertised
azure striker gunvolt: that mega man zero spiritual descendant by the inti creates team. never knew it was on PC (and in 60fps now)

i also got

west of loathing: probably not as funny as reviews say but i bet it'll be fun
ape escape 2: for the first time it was actually cheaper to get a PS2 game through PSN than through amazon sellers/ebay
okage shadow king: can't wait to push a lot of crates around
unfinished swan: can't wait to finish the swan

It wasn't, but I'm glad they re-released a PC port and ported it to everything though with the Ada content.

I liked West of Loathing, but it only took 2-3 hours to beat (since I didn't do all the sidequests) and that was probably a bit more than enough.

It's too bad Capcom is Capcom and they can't be assed to re-do those 480p Ada cutscenes.

Holy poo poo, they actually updated the PC version with all the backported stuff from Switch/Gunvolt 2 and even apparently added some new (exclusive?) modes :aaaaa:

It was surmised they more or less abandoned the Steam version (and PC porting in general although there were a few minor games until Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon) after low sales. Awesome to hear (and why didn't I hear about it anywhere!), I need to pick it up some time!

it's a very 1 step forward 2 steps back series in general. most of the changes to styles and the flowchart for events/endings were great, some of the other changes sucked. still hope they make a 5 someday.

The reason was that game development costs were rising and Nintendo/Microsoft were offering valuable business deals. It's why Ubisoft had such explosive growth that decade. They benefited from working from Microsoft who was cash rich and had great software support teams.

I knew Paladins was an Overwatch clone but I didn't know they made a Fortnite clone spinoff called Realm Royale

How much of that is increased total viewership versus replacing other games, though? I can see PUBG streamers flipping but I am guessing a lot of League streams are not going to cross over

Just gotta keep walking down that road.
Yeah, I mean we all know Fortnite is massively popular at the moment, so I'm not sure what's meant to be surprising about that graph or what "eating Twitch" is supposed to mean for that matter. It eats its competitors and draws more people to Twitch to watch streams of it, but that doesn't automatically mean other games are doing noticeably worse.

I do enjoy that tiny initial spike that must be people trying to stream the "Save the World" mode before giving up, and then the Battle Royale mode changed everything

Yeah I guess without a measure of total viewership they graph isn't terribly descriptive. I just like graphs!

E: found the source, seems like most of the games on the chart have reasonably steady viewerships.

I beat 3 again after like 15 years recently and it still holds up. I mean, it is definitely not as good as 2 but that is a rough act to follow.

I once read a Resident Evil comic book adaptation that was framed as Chris telling the story and it’s his version of the game, while Jill is pissed off in the background because she experienced her version of the game and she thinks Chris is lying. It was very weird and I am still not sure what they were trying to say but it was also pretty lol.

Was it the one where Leon fights vampires and Barry shoots a werewolf in another stories? Because the whole comic was equal parts weird and awesome.

Didn’t Paladins launch slightly before Overwatch? Or is the idea that the company saw Overwatch in development and rushed out a clone?
